So last week when I went to the store, they had whole chickens buy one get TWO free! I decided not to wonder “why on earth are they tryin’ to get rid of these birds so fast…?” and instead thought “what a fantastic deal! I’ll take three!” Save that money, ya know.
So usually when I do this, I make the whole chicken in the crock-pot. It’s easy and I can just do it in the morning and come home to a tender, fully cooked chicken! However, on the day that I actually wanted to make the chicken, morning Meaghan did not remember to do the crock-pot part at all…mornings are hard. But I got home relatively early that day, so I decided to just try my hand at roasting it in the oven! I figured my cast iron would work perfectly for this…which then made me realize that I could probably also just cook potatoes in there too…YAS.
